Ask HN: Protecting private data during a robbery.
2 by nullandvoid | 1 comments on Hacker News.
I've often wondered what would I do during the case of an armed robbery, whereby you're forced to unlock your phone (likely on the street, but it could also happen at home). One such option would be to have multiple users (which is transparent to the robber, and instead only accessed via a different pin) - one which doesn't include banking, messaging etc, but AFAIK I don't believe this exists (I'm on android (Samsung). How do the security / privacy conscious folk on here handle this threat?
